x * Work Practices to minimize risks; <br /> Safe use of engineering controls and equipment; <br /> * Medical surveillance requirements; <br /> * Site control measures; <br /> * Decontamination procedures . <br /> 7.0 MEDICAL SURVEILLANCE <br /> Ll <br /> 7.1 GENERAL <br /> A medical surveillance program has been instituted by BEH for all employees with potential <br /> exposure to hazardous substances . An initial medical examination is given upon initiation of <br /> employment, annually thereafter, and upon termination (if the employee has not had an examination <br /> [I within the last six months). In addition, baseline monitoring and job termination monitoring may <br /> be established to document exposure for project personnel. Subcontractors working with hazardous <br /> materials or in the site exclusion zones will be required to have their own company medical <br /> ! monitoring plan that meets BEII standards at a minimum. <br /> 7.2 EXAMINATIONS <br /> Lf Each team member must have a physical examination prior to working on-site to verify that <br /> he/she is physically able to use protective equipment (including respirators), work in hot or cold <br /> ( environments and have no predispositions to occupationally-induced disease. The medical program <br /> will also consist of periodic follow-up exams and additional exams as needed to evaluate specific <br /> exposures of unexplainable illnesses. The exams will be provided by the San Bernardino <br /> Community Hospital or an equally qualified alternate who is Board-certified in Occupational <br /> Medicine. <br /> 8.0 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT <br /> This section details the level of personal protection to be used during field operations at the <br /> { Frontier Transportation property. Appropriate levels of protection have been determined for areas <br /> J on-site through the information detailed in the site hazard assessment. <br /> I _ <br /> 8.1 GENERAL <br /> During all field operations, personnel shall wear hardhats, safety glasses, steel toe safety <br /> boots, and hearing protection (earplugs and earmuffs). Any coveralls and work boots that are worn <br /> IJ on-site should not be worn off-site. <br /> f i 8.2 LEVEL D OPERATIONS <br /> Level D operations will include equipment operators and all site personnel. Level D <br /> personnel will wear work Tyvek coveralls and Nitrile gloves, and have in their possession an air <br /> purifying respirator (half or full-face) with organic vapor cartridges. Operations requiring Tyvek <br /> coveralls, Nitrile gloves and the possession of a respirator will be boring advancement and soil vapor <br /> sample collection. Liquid repellant coveralls will be present on site should site activities require that <br /> L_I type of protection. Respirator use may be needed during these activities depending on air monitoring <br /> I_� <br />
